Untrodden Peaks and Unfrequented Valleys: A Midsummer Ramble in the Dolomites

"“Probably the most dramatic landscape on earth.' Amelia B. Edwards first heard about the Dolomites in 1853, through sketches brought back to England from Italy. On 27 June 1872, she embarked on a trip through the mountains with her friend Lucy Renshaw. At the time of Edwards’s visit, the Dolomites were described as terra incognita and even educated persons had never heard of them. During the expedition, Edwards also sought works of Titian, finding a Madonna and Child in Serravalle (Vittorio Veneto) and two other paintings at a village church in Cadore. They traveled alone, by carriage, by cart, side saddle on mules, and on foot, visiting remote villages where few foreigners had been, and explored the strikingly beautiful limestone mountains with the help of local guides. Edwards chronicled their journey in this bestselling Victorian travelogue, writing detailed descriptions of the geological, cultural, and political history of the region. She also sketched the illustrations that appear in the book. After her descent from the mountains, Edwards described civilized life as a “dead-level World of Commonplace.”"

[German] - Die schwarze Serie, Folge 33: Der Vier-Fünfzehn-Express (ungekürzt)

"Als sich an einem unbehaglichen Dezembertag des Jahres 1856 der Geschäftsmann und Reisende William Langford doch noch ärgerlicherweise ein schon für sich geglaubtes privates Abteil des Vier-Fünfzehn-Schnellzugs mit einem weitläufigen Bekannten teilen muss, ahnt er noch nicht, dass diese Begegnung ihn alsbald in ein unerklärliches Rätsel involvieren wird ... Ein Rätsel, an dem sich die englische Polizei bereits seit Monaten die Zähne ausbeißt ..."

The Four-Fifteen Express

"A fog-shrouded train. A vanished passenger. A truth that defies the living. When William Langford boards the 4:15 express on a damp December evening, he expects nothing more than a quiet journey to his friend’s country estate. But his solitary compartment is unexpectedly intruded upon by a familiar traveler — a reserved, pale-faced gentleman carrying a heavy deed-box and an unsettling air. By the time the train slows into Blackwater station, the stranger disappears into the swirling mist. And then — he is gone. Not merely from sight, but from the world. Langford soon learns the unthinkable: the man he shared the compartment with died months before. His arrival at Dumbleton Manor sets off shock, whispers, and a chilling realization that reason cannot explain. Driven by duty — and haunted by what he saw — Langford becomes entwined in a mystery that bridges the natural and the supernatural. What begins as a polite Victorian travel tale unravels into a ghostly investigation, a financial scandal, and a murder buried beneath brambles, secrets, and time. Amelia B. Edwards delivers one of the finest railway ghost mysteries of the Victorian age — a tale steeped in cold iron, lamplight, and a chilling question that echoes long after the final page: What travels with us when justice has not yet been served? Perfect for fans of M.R. James, Charles Dickens’ ghost stories, and Sherlock Holmes-era intrigue. Narrated with atmospheric depth by Jason Miller."

Classic Supernatural Stories

"A masterful collection containing all types of supernatural tales . Over the long course of literature there are many stories which stand out, maybe jump out would be a better analogy in this context, with a theme from another world, the other side, a world we usually cannot see but which can take over our personal space in a blink of irrational thought. Reason tends to dissolve and instead panic and fear become our likely partners. And this is all before we actually journey along the awkward story path the author has devised for us.1 - Classic Supernatural Stories - An Introduction2 - The Body Snatcher by Robert Louis Stevenson3 - The Facts In The Case of Monsieur Valdemar by Edgar Allan Poe4 - The Trial for Murder by Charles Dickens5 - A Fight with a Cannon by Victor Hugo6 - A Ghost Story by Mark Twain7 - Mark of the Beast by Rudyard Kipling8 - The Legend of Sleepy Hollow by Washington Irving9 - The Horla by Guy De Maupassant10 - The Middle Toe of the Right Foot by Ambrose Bierce11 - Lost Hearts by M R James12 - The Ebony Frame by Edith Nesbit13 - The Furnished Room by O Henry14 - The Open Window by Saki15 - The Upper Berth by F Marion Crawford16 - Couching at the Door by D K Broster17 - An Account of Some Strange Disturbances in Aungier Street by Sheridan Le Fanu18 - My Adventure in Norfolk by A J Alan19 - Hodge by Elinor Mordaunt20 - The Bus Conductor by E F Benson21 - The Phantom Coach by Amelia Edwards22 - The Ankardyne Pew by W F Harvey23 - N by Arthur Machen24 - The Moon Bog by H P Lovecraft25 - The Monkey's Paw by W W Jacobs26 - The Sumach by Ulric Daubeny27 - John Silence, Physican Extraordinary by Algernon Blackwood28 - What Was It by Fitz James O'Brien"

3 Stories - Mind Playing Tricks

"There is something about the number 3. The Ancient Greeks believed 3 was the perfect number, and in China 3 has always been a lucky number, and they know a thing or two. Most religions also have 3 this and 3 that and, of course, in these more modern times, three’s a crowd may be too many, except when it’s a ménage à trois. It seems good things usually come in threes.Whatever history and culture says WE think 3, a hat-trick of stories, is a great number to explore themes and literary avenues that classic authors were so adept at creating.From their pens to your your ears.01 - 3 Stories - Mind Playing Tricks02 - Was It An Illusion.

Wonder Of Women - Ghost Stories

"Let’s be clear. We are all equal under the law. However, even in these more modern times that is not an absolute and still remains a distant ambition for many. In the days when Britain ruled the waves and bestrode the world as its policeman and plunderer in chief it also subjugated half of its own people to second class status. Women were chattel and property. There were some exceptions based on wealth and birthright but for the overwhelming majority your lot was to fall in with the rules and do as you were told. Many did.But whilst male society sought to place obstacles in the path to equality, it could not deny their literary talents, which many times they circumvented by using male pseudonyms. However, the soaring sales of magazines and periodicals during the Victorian Age meant they had voracious appetites for literature, whatever the sex of its gender.Dozens of authors appeared to fill the need. Narratives had new ideas. Characters were emboldened by societal changes and the female voice taking responsibility.The women included here are talents that dazzle. Put them up against anyone and they rise to the top. Whether they remain with an avid readership today or faded to obscurity with the passing of the times their quality remains undimmed. 1 - Women of Wonder - Ghost Stories - An Introduction2 - Man Size In Marble by Edith Nesbit3 - The Eyes by Edith Wharton4 - The Story of Salome by Amelia Edwards5 - The Shadows on the Wall by Mary E Wilkins Freeman6 - A Spirit Elopement by Clotilde Graves7 - Since I Died by Elizabeth Stuart Phelps8 - Reality or Delusion by Mrs Ellen Wood9 - Was It An Illusion.
